Holiday Happiness Card Campaign

Thanks to your incredible support, we reached our goal for the Holiday Happiness Cards! Each card sold helps brighten the lives of seniors in our community, and we couldn’t have done it without YOU. This is more than just a milestone—it’s a celebration of kindness, connection, and the power of community. Thank you for making the season brighter for 3,000 seniors.

3,000/3,000 cards have been purchased

  • Each year, we work with our friends at Halifax Paper Hearts, who uniquely design our card for our Holiday Happiness Card Campaign. When you purchase a card (each card is $7.50), you can add your own heartfelt message during checkout, or leave it blank for us to write a thoughtful note on your behalf. Working with our trusted community partners, we deliver these cards to seniors who could benefit from a reminder that they’re cared for and valued, especially during the holiday season—a time that can feel isolating for many older adults.

  • Our Holiday Happiness Cards are much more than just holiday greetings—they’re a labor of love. Each card is carefully handwritten by volunteers, sponsors, and community members to deliver meaningful messages of hope and joy. This personal touch builds genuine connections between seniors and their communities, making a lasting emotional impact.

  • This campaign reaches seniors across Atlantic Canada and Ontario. When you purchase a card, you can choose the area where you’d like it sent, and we work with local partners in those regions to deliver cards to seniors who could really use an uplifting message during the season and a reminder that their community is thinking of them.

  • Since 2020, we have delivered 5,900 handwritten cards to seniors. This year, we’re aiming to deliver 3,000 more. By purchasing a card, you’re helping us reach this goal and spread warmth to seniors in need of connection.

  • As the holiday season begins, your support is vital in helping us uplift a generation that deserves appreciation and recognition. Your purchase isn’t just a card; it’s an investment in a brighter, more inclusive future for all.

  • Are you an organization looking for ways to support your community this Holiday? We offer meaningful sponsorship and engagement opportunities for companies and employees to support seniors through the Holiday Happiness Card Campaign. By partnering with We Are Young, your organization can help reduce isolation, connect seniors with their communities, and bring warmth to those who need it most. Contact us at info@weareyoung.ca to learn how you can get involved for our 2025 campaign!

  • Heartfelt Testimonials

    “Some have no family at all, while others have family but too far away to visit. The Holiday’s are a lonely time of year when you have no-one to spend it with. Feeling depressed over the holidays compounds preexisting health issues. These cards help lighten the load. - Community Partner

    “...It warms my heart when tears fills theirs eyes with appreciation over a simple card. My heart wants to burst. Happiness goes both ways. As the old saying goes, happiness makes the world go round.” - Community Partner
